Not sure what n you’re referring to, because there is a large sample size with

12 teams playing 3 OOC games each, and none of them managing to beat a team with a current winning record, except for 2 of the top 3 teams beating BYU. Leading to the comically sad claim that wins over a few bad sub-.500 P5 teams are the conference’s best wins. With a little luck, maybe one or two of them will pull off a miracle and get bowl-eligible.

You must be glad BYU is not in Utah's shoes right now

Are you saying you wouldn’t be “scared” to play LSU in the playoffs?

I didn’t make anything up.

I wouldn’t. Obviously LSU is a heavy, heavy favorite.

According to Sagarin Michigan St is

So the Tennessee win was a fluke, but the 2 losses you mentioned weren’t. Got it

I think BYU is better than Michigan State or Texas Tech this year, which is the

How dare you bring objective data into this!

DocPimp

11/17/19 11:18am

So you agree with his objective data that utah is #11, behind #6 Oklahoma,

chilango

I agree with Utah being number 7 in the CFP.

DocPimp

Lolzzz. Nope.

DocPimp

11/17/19 11:15am

Agree. This is a down year for college football overall, but especially PAC-12.

11/17/19 1:26pm

ya, this is a lie

formerly utesplease

11/18/19 12:36pm

Why? How? What other team is a better win?

Cougzilla

11/18/19 1:20pm

Michigan State Texas Tech and Ole Miss are better wins

Except that they all having losing records...

The attempted condescension from a ute is just too funny. You’re not even good

The South is not in the middle, it is near the bottom. As a whole, the Pac is

‘Way behind the other conferences...’

DocPimp

11/18/19 11:39pm

Based on Sagarin, which elsewhere in this thread you called “objective data”

chilango

11/19/19 5:24am

Sagarin is the same one I looked at.

DocPimp

11/19/19 9:24am

It screams 2nd-worst P5 conference, which is what I said it was. ACC is worse.

chilango

11/19/19 12:03pm

That’s fair.

DocPimp

11/19/19 12:52pm

And your n-1 is so scientifically valid.

DocPimp

If thats honestly how you are comparing these teams we have nothing else

Ok so with all sincerity and no sarcasm how would you compare them?

cfb is the one sport where theres the least amount of translation between record

formerly utesplease

11/18/19 11:08pm

This is a good argument, stats are a great way to compare teams when they don’t

Cougzilla

11/19/19 4:45am

All three are currently 4-6. LOL if those are the Pac’s best wins.

chilango

11/18/19 2:03pm

And the teams that beat them are middle of the road Pac teams.

DocPimp

11/18/19 4:07pm

Uh-huh. And which ones lost to all the MWC and AAC teams?

chilango

11/18/19 4:51pm

UCLA. Who is much improved.

DocPimp

11/18/19 5:27pm

Sure, UCLA “improved” once they started playing crappy Pac 12 competition. And
